Hooker me... demonstrating at the farmer's market

I'll be demonstrating traditional rug hooking Saturday, November 5th from 11am-3pm at the Union Square Farmer's Market (the big one!). It's part of the program called Urban Homesteading. Other's will be spinning (including friends of mine, one of whom will be using my wheel) and knitting. There will also be canning experts, mushroom growers, sandal making, quilting and a lot more.

From the market's FB page,

"Come join us for our Homesteading Fair! An exposition of heirloom skills -- from canning to spinning wool -- come learn from a wonderful array of experts whose knowledge and skills are a perfect compliment to the season as we prepare for cooler months ahead."

  1. All the best with your demonstrating, Bernard. Sure sounds like a great event. We always found demonstrating days, whether it be spinning or rug hooking, to be a delight. You would meet the greatest people.
    Wish we could be there : )
